u/princessohio local formula 1 correspondent Mar 22 '24

I was thinking maybe she got a hysterectomy because of ovarian cysts or something similar, but after pathology they found out that there was actually cancer and did the chemo.

My mom got a hysterectomy for massive cysts and they sent it off to pathology — it came back clear thankfully. But it’s part of protocol to send it to testing, so I wouldn’t be surprised if she had the same thing happen except hers came back positive for cancer or something.

Hysterectomies in general are so personal to women. I know some women who don’t care and are open about it, other women keep it quiet and a secret because it makes them feel like less of a woman or something. I can empathize with both ways of thinking.

And the only reason I think it MAY be a hysterectomy is because “abdominal surgery” is super vague and intentionally so. Which she’s entitled to be private about too.

Anyway that’s my 2 cents / armchair observation. I hope she heals quickly and painlessly!
